FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature performance technology like ABZORB and SBS, the 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer and is better suited for daily wear than professional-grade athletic running.
How do I determine the right size?
The New Balance 9060 fits true to size, but we recommend measuring your child's foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can cause the synthetic materials and the complex pod midsole to warp. Please clean by hand using a damp cloth.
What is the primary material used?
These trainers are primarily constructed with durable nylon, providing both longevity and a flexible fit.
Is the design unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for all children.
Troubleshooting
Outer sole appears to be collecting debris in the sculpted gaps
Use a soft brush to periodically clear the gaps in the pod midsole to maintain aesthetic look and traction.
Shoes feel too snug
Ensure laces are properly loosened; if the fit remains uncomfortable, verify the UK size against the foot measurement as the 9060 has a unique, structured fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your New Balance 9060 trainers in prime condition, ensure you select the correct UK size for your child. Because these shoes use a blend of nylon and synthetic materials, it is important to avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the delicate midsole pods and structural integrity. Instead, clean the exterior using a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For deeper stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth, then air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the shape of the materials.
